Pitching Long Island:
Who, What, Where, When & Why
The region of Long Island, surrounded by water with the boroughs of Queens and Brooklyn to the west, is unique in its geography, culture, politics, economy, challenges and advantages. From economic development to recreation to education to business and the professions, the people who pitch Long Island are as unique as their surroundings. Hear what they have to say about their careers, the techniques they employ in their messaging, their roles as spokesperson, and how they manage the strengths and weaknesses of their organizations. If you live or work on Long Island, this panel discussion will open your eyes to what it takes to market our region. It’s a combination of public relations, sales, communications, and a heavy dose of chutzpa.
